Well, the outline already stores data ;-)  Many plugins use particular
kinds of nodes to store particular data.  Leo's core defines meanings for
@settings, @test, @chapters and many others.  I see no reason to get all
excited about "protecting" data: all data is worth saving.

The typical way is to put your data in some out-of-the-way place.  The
startup node comes to mind, but anywhere will do.  In short, put your
persistent data in an @my_kind_of_data node.
